Bobby Deol praises Alia Bhatt’s action preparation as he reflects on filming YRF’s ‘Alpha’
Bobby Deol has spoken about his experience working on YRF’s ‘Alpha’, describing the shoot as demanding but rewarding. The film, an origin story about an assassin, is led by Alia Bhatt and also features Sharvari.
Bobby said, “I’m very fond of Ranbir and Alia, and I always wanted to work with both of them. With Ranbir, I did Animal, and now with Alia, I have now done Alpha. I had the best time working with both of them. It is quite amazing that we are making an action film in India, like Alpha, featuring two girls doing action on screen. I like Alpha a lot because it is new, it is refreshing, and a new visual for the audience to watch in theatres.”
He said he was particularly impressed by Alia Bhatt’s preparation for the physical demands of the role. “Alia is one of the most hardworking and sincere actors I’ve worked with. She comes to the set completely prepared, deeply invested in every scene. She has never done this kind of action before, and I was amazed seeing how prepared she was for the shoot. I could see she was giving her all because action is hard to pull off, and she went for it,” he said.

Bobby added that the team aimed for a grounded approach to the action. “Adi and the director Shiv Rawail had a clear vision that action should look real and raw. So, it was a tough shoot for both of us, and I’m glad we have a film that everyone should sit back, relax, and hopefully enjoy thoroughly.”
‘Alpha’, directed by Shiv Rawail, also stars Anil Kapoor and is scheduled for worldwide release on 10th July 2026.
